Image, sound and data media are insured throughout the entire production and post-production period, i.e. during production, processing, storage and transport, and preferably until they are handed over to the client.

Personal loss insurance for film and TV productions

The insurance covers damages that arise from the interruption, delay or termination of production if named persons are unable to work due to accident, illness or death.
